Few days ago, a friend in twitter asked: Who all here is a beta tester for #Pirate101? We talked about that NONE of us are beta tester YET! So I have few questions for you:

~Are you confused by rumor or hear from friend(s) or Website like facebook or twitter?

~Are you confused by email for Pirate101?

If all questions are answers is yes. Well, I would like to point to Pirate101.com clearly say:

"We will make an announcement through the Pirate101 website and Facebook page

before we send out Official Beta Invitations. If your account is selected for participation in

Beta testing, you will receive an official email from KingsIsle."

(Under P101 Q/A: When will I know if I can play in the Closed Beta?) Pirate101 Q/A

A friend heard about "every Tuesday they raffled 10 players for Pirate101 Closed Beta." It is not true. Again, Pirate101.com said above the announcement.

I heard few people said, "I got one email from Pirate101.com," which is so confused to all of us, but they send the messages about update, news and stuff that we wanted to know. Not Closed Beta application or something. When you apply for drawing for Closed Beta, here is the proof, but read carefully:

~ Thanks for your Interest!

Your interest in the Pirate101 Closed Beta has been confirmed.

You have been entered in the beta drawing and been opted into KingsIsle Entertainment emails!

Keep an eye out for Exclusive Pirate101 pre-launch email, where you can get a

I am advice to you, please listen/read to Pirate101.com, they will make announcement later. Please, Please, Please stop listen "rumors about Pirate101, raffle/drawing or other." Listen/read through KingsIsle, Pirate101 and Wizard101. They will tell you what's up, news, sneak-peek, and Closed Beta players. Thank you.

I hope this blog and Pirate101.com answered your questions and your concerns.

I wish you Good Luck with Spiral!

P.S. Just updated! Pirate101 has commented on their FB: "A release date
has not yet been announced. We will make an announcement through the Pirate101
website and Facebook page before we send out official Beta invitations. If your
account is selected for participation in Beta testing, you will receive an
official email from KingsIsle."

I was like "WOW" where can I find those two new reagents? Well, test realm notes explaining:

If can't read but you can click this image to make large.

But I can type what they said. Amber Dust and another mystery reagent are available from bosses like the Pendragon, Morganthe and Starburst Spider as well as bosses in Waterworks and Briskbreeze towers.

Hmm...... dungeons are long way to do gather those new reagents. Unless you prefer faster way.

But I rather do gardening in my opinion but it is up to you. The best garden that you can gather are: White Tiger Lily, Deadly Ninja Fig, King Parsley, Red Bell Pepper and Red Huckleberries.

One of my many goals is gather lot of reagents to max in share bank, you never know "what if" in future for crafting quests or new recipes need those reagents. So all I need most are Fossils and Amber, now added to my new list for those new reagents. If you think that way to be smart, then do it. If you don't want to max, then don't do it. One of my many goals that I really wanted to make mannequins to take clothes out of bank to dress up in house so I can save some stuff as I needed.

I believe that fathers are struggle to support family together, hard working, make money for needed, don't give up, protect family, cooking, and show care and love to family. Fathers are awesome and wonderful to care and love. Thank you! I would like to share the history of Father's day, that I may suggest for this link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Father's_Day, please read this.

My kids made this ties for their daddy from church today that Primary children make them.

Blue and green circle with face is my son made, the hearts from my daughter.

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY 2012

I asked my husband what does he want from us. He told me that he rather us to make something or cooking or crafting or else that are free and not make this home clutter. It make me thinking of my mother who has 11 siblings (no joking!) that her father made small amount money for one year, every year that her father paid for mortgage, church money, food and needed. But not much gifts like birthday or Christmas, they has to make something to gift each other instead buy something may not worth to them. They were poor that time in past. They were hard working, farming, take care of animals and they were so happy even don't need stuff buy from stores or whatever. I am try to improve our homes style for this family that we try to do crafting to gift instead of buy stuff that may not need.

Thought it will help you to thinking maybe do crafting instead of buy something for father next year. I noticed in twitter very few made cards after I posted the card idea. I hope the fathers like it.

Again, I want to say:

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY 2012

I <3 U, all fathers who <3

families.

Oh, by the way, can you guess what did my son make the design for his daddy's tie in the picture I just posted in this blog? If you guess right by tonight, I will give you three choice of packs, if not by tonight, too bad. Just comment this blog. I will read. I will announce in next morning. ;-)

I wish you Good Luck with Spiral!

The little contest of my son made the design for his daddy is.....................................................

Now I am going to share my story, enjoy to read!

Diana and The Three Wizards

Once a upon
time, there were a little life wizard name is Diana with her pet polar cat
named Gigi, wandering around in Pet Hatchery and looking around for right
pet.

I saw the
Fire Wizard named Kelsey Fireheart with her pet Fire Beetle. She showed me lot of pets, so she offered 3
beetles, Fire beetle, Ice Beetle and Life Scarab. So I try fire beetle, I felt like I get
warmer, then hot,I said, “Woah! This
beetle is too flame! Let me try your ice
beetle, please?” So she let me try Ice
beetle for few minutes. My body get
feeling cool, then cold. I said, “this
beetle is too cold! Let me try your life scarab, please?” I tried her life scarab, I thinking and I try
run and walk around. I told her, “this
scarab is just right for me. Can we hatch, please?” Then we hatched, we failed to not trade the
pets as we wanted. Sigh….. So I thanked
to her for let me try and hatch.

I wandered
around at Pet Hatchery and still looking for right pet. I saw the Ice Wizard named Alexander
Lionheart with his pet Colossus. He
showed me few pets, he offered three colossus pets. I tried his pet silver colossus, then I
realized it is too hard. I said, “this
colossus is too hard, let me try other colossus, please?” He let me tried the Bolt colossus, I tried
run and walk around but it keep shock and thundering to me. I said,
“Yikes! This colossus is too thunder,
let me try other colossus, please?” He let
me try the Earth Walker, I tried test on Earth Walker, I am thinking and said,
“Hmm….. I like this, this Earth Walker is just right. Can we hatch,
please?” We hatched, and we got pets as
we wanted. I thanked him for let me
trying and hatch.

I go
training my new pet Earth Walker slowly with my snacks, (no mega snacks yet) to
teen, got spritely, then Adult, got health gift. Grrrr, failing, I was not keep going to
training my pet, not the talents as I wanted to have for my pet. So I wandered around at Pet Hatchery and
looking around for right pet.

I saw the
Myth Wizard named Heather Raven, she has her pet myth Minotaur. I asked her if she has some pets to show
me. She showed me her pets. She showed me three minotaur, so I wanted to
try her minotaur at first is myth minotaur.
I tested it out, then I said to Heather, “this myth minotaur is too suspicious,
let me try your other minotaur, please?”
She let me try her death minotaur.
I run and walk around with death minotaur. I told her, “Yikes, this minotaur is too frightening
for me, let me try other minotaur, please?”
So she let me try her life minotaur.
I tried to learn and run around with it.
I said, “This minotaur is just right for me, can we hatch?” We hatched and we got the right pets as we
wanted. I thanked to her for let me
trying and hatching pets.

I was
thinking, Hmm, how can I skip training
and get it to epic? I just
remembered that someone told me try skip dance, feed mega snack to your pet, and
refill energy potion, this is cheating and faster trick. So I paid lot of mega
snacks pack to training my pet, skip dance then feed mega snack and refilled
energy potion. It got epic, but the
talents failed me, not what I wanted.

You can use gardening which can be save your gold and reagents hunting in each worlds. Instead of to go to bazaar, use all gold to buy reagents but it is up to you. Good Luck for gardening, bazaar, and reagent hunting. The * symbol after cost is not right price which is in Bazaar.... "Advice" is as suggest for you to thinking about to have gardening or bazaar use by gold. It really up to you.

For me, as Grandmaster Gardener and Legendary Artisan, make advice: use gardening to save your gold more often than go to bazaar to waste gold. Try to save reagents in share bank that which is much easy for all wizards in one account to check share bank. It is very helpful... But remember what if they will have crafting quest or gears or else that you may really need those reagents? Make sure to save reagents as you can.

Be prepare for contests that I will give 3 or 5 Scavenger Hunts away. So Watch for it!
